Bangladesh has renewed its demand for India to extradite former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, rejecting her request for a new passport and national identity card. State Minister for Foreign Affairs Humayun Kabir said Dhaka would seek her return under the existing extradition treaty between the 2 countries. He described Hasina as a fugitive and said Bangladesh would not issue fresh travel documents to her. The development comes after Hasina approached Bangladesh’s High Commission in New Delhi through her lawyers. She has expressed plans to return to Bangladesh in December and surrender before a court despite facing a death sentence. (PC: News18)
